Frankfurt's ILF to Launch LL.M. Finance Europe for Students from China

Those who pursue LL.M. programs in European law often head towards careers in European institutions – the European Commission, the Council of Europe, the European Central Bank – as well as roles in the commercial realm, in advocacy, management and academia. See the Top 10 LL.M.s for EU Law here.

As calls across civil society grow louder for a more inclusive form of capitalism, affordable housing, fair wages, welfare and rights for workers, law schools are launching programs that seek to champion positive change in society.

Many of the world’s leading law schools now offer programming in entrepreneurship, whether full LL.M. degrees or shorter certificate programs for those who already have a legal masters degree. Other institutions run courses in related fields, such as commercial law or intellectual property. And some law schools run start-up incubators, a good place to launch a fledgling company.

Demand for LL.M. programs in corporate law remains robust. The skills and knowledge imparted through corporate law degrees is still valuable; typically, they cover depth the legal, economic, financial, and governance matters most relevant to company executives and financial investors.
